Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Petoskey — Reviews

All the staff we encountered were friendly & welcoming, the grounds were well kept, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Can't beat the location.

Not only was the campground impeccable the staff went out of their way to make sure your needs were addressed.

Nice campground if you’re into RV camping, but if you’re using a tent it’s not great. Lot was fairly small and leaves the fire pit too close to a modest-sized tent to be safe. The bigger issue is a general lack of public bathroom facilities. Although there are a few public restrooms with private showers which is nice, they are too sparse and concentrated to one side of the grounds. For the lot we were given, it was actually worth it to get in the car to drive to the bathroom which is really not awesome, especially in the middle of the night when it’s raining (ask me how I know). At a minimum, there ought to be an outhouse or two in each camping area if building more full-service facilities doesn’t make sense. Not trying to be bougie, there are plenty of amenities here for RV campers or people who rent out the mini-cabin units where restrooms wouldn’t be a concern or the lot is big enough to accommodate a fire pit safely. If you’re looking for traditional tent camping, this place doesn’t really cater to you and there are probably cheaper, less crowded options.

Nice people, clean campground, great location.

Friendly staff, fun Recreation Center activities (yay, tie dye), beautiful camp site surrounded by trees!!

Very clean park - Staff very friendly Convenient to Downtown

The campground is awesome! All of the staff is extremely friendly, professional, and helpful. The grounds are kept immaculate. Shout out to Alicia in the Activity Center! She was over the top helpful, energetic and made the activities more memorable and fun!!!

Our camp site was super nice and had a shade tree. Grounds were nicely kept. Everything was great except when my husband used the shower by the pool. There was no hot water, it was dirty and the floor was cracked and was taped over. It sank when stepped on it.

A very clean campsite. The employees were so nice and friendly. We don’t have small children but I loved all the activities for kids. We would definitely return.

We had a great spot

The park itself is incredible. The sites are spacious and very well maintained! The amenities for the kids were plentiful and the staff who led the activities were all incredibly friendly and professional! Its location is so convenient! The only reason I gave it 4 stars is due to the treatment I received from one of the front staff ladies. I noticed she was rude to a woman who was checking in-then when I needed to ask her a question, she was dismissive and unprofessional towards me. She barely gave me the time of day and dismissed me. Our experience there was definitely impacted by her rudeness. We witnessed her ignore a co worker the very next day-so I don’t think it was personal towards me but more so how she treats people in general. Other than her, the park was a great place to stay!

Enjoyable atmosphere. Clean restrooms.

This was my first time staying at the campground and it was a wonderful experience! The rustic cabins were as described and perfect for what we needed. The staff was amazing, friendly and accommodating. I appreciated having the ability to do laundry on site. The coffee shop was a pleasant surprise! The only thing that I wasn’t please by was other people parking in my assigned parking spot. This happened twice. Not the fault of staff, but it was frustrating to have to find additional parking without taking someone else’s assigned spot.

2 bedroom Cabins should have their own bathrooms and at least a microwave and small fridge. Also upgrade to at least 1 Queen bed and take out 1 bunk bed.

Was a great stay, nice campground. There in April (we were their first campers of the season). Did laundry while we were there, a couple of the dryers looked dirty so we didn’t use those. Could be they just hadn’t cleaned the laundry room yet. Would stay there again.
